My dad was an only child and was adopted by his grandmother at a young age he was a spoiled child by his mother he would get a new bicycle when he was young and would tear it apart just to see how they were put together and his mom and dad would go and buy him a new one.When he got older he worked a deitz for a very long time.He married my mom in 1966 they had four beautiful children who he loved dearly one was not his but he still excepted him as his own.He was a man who had his problems but did his best to provide for his wife of seventeen yrs and then they seperated as they just could not live together no longer,but stayed best friends for 24yrs after there divorce.mY DAD WAS ALWAYS THERE WHENEVER MY MOM NEEDED TO TALK ABOUT HER CHILDREN HE ALWAYS TRIED TO HELP HER THE BEST HE COULD.My dad loved nascar racing and his sports.Him and his son dennis were partners in crime and loved to go to the races whenever able to.My dad lost his oldest boy Kenneth in April of 2005 it was a devastating moment for him but he got through it.He became  very depressed as his daughter Cheryl had a gastric bypass surgery and became ill this crushed him badly so he just began giving up on life as he knew that he was going to lose her one day.My dad was my life and  my best friend I remember as a child him and my mom took us to the races and we went to alot of other places also i sure do miss him
